You have an Azure DevOps organization named Contoso and an Azure subscription. The subscription contains an Azure virtual machine scale set named VMSS1 that is configured for autoscaling.
You have a project in Azure DevOps named Project1. Project1 is used to build a web app named App1 and deploy App1 to VMSS1.
You need to ensure that an email alert is generated whenever VMSS1 scales in or out.

Instead create an action group.
Note: An action group is a collection of notification preferences defined by the owner of an Azure subscription. Azure Monitor, Service Health and Azure Advisor alerts use action groups to notify users that an alert has been triggered.

The solution suggests configuring the autoscale settings from Azure Monitor, but this alone will not generate an email alert whenever the virtual machine scale set scales in or out.
To generate an email alert, an Azure Monitor alert rule must be configured. The alert rule can be set up to trigger an email whenever a specific event occurs, such as scaling in or out of a virtual machine scale set.
Therefore, to meet the goal, the following steps need to be performed:
Once the above steps are performed, an email alert will be generated whenever the virtual machine scale set scales in or out.
